The above described features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description. [Embodiment] FIG. 1F is a cross-sectional view showing a manufacturing process of a conductor structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. First, referring to FIG. 1A, a substrate 100 is provided. For example, a conductor layer (not shown), a dielectric layer (not shown), or a generally well-known semiconductor component (not shown) has been formed in the substrate. After that, a large conductor is formed on the substrate. The material of the conductor layer 102 is, for example, metal, polycrystalline germanium or gold telluride. The conductor layer 102 is formed by, for example, forming a polycrystalline layer 102a on the substrate 100. Subsequently, a shihua metal layer l〇2b is formed on the polycrystalline slab layer, and the material of the bismuth metal layer 〇2b is, for example, tungsten telluride. Conductor ° The formation method of the layer ι 2 is, for example, a chemical vapor deposition method or a physical vapor deposition method. In the present embodiment, the conductor layer 102 is, for example, a two-layer structure composed of a polysilicon layer 102a and a deuterated metal layer 102b. However, the material of the conductor layer 102 and the number of layers of the layer of the present invention are not limited to those depicted in this embodiment. No, those skilled in the art can adjust to their needs. Next, referring to FIG. 1A, a mask layer 104 is formed on the conductor layer 102. The material of the mask layer 1 〇 4 is, for example, polycrystalline germanium, and its formation method is, for example, bismuth chemical vapor deposition. Then, a patterned light pdan 200847231 2UU^U101 22657twf.doc/p layer 106 is formed on the mask layer to cover the portion forming method, for example, the pattern of the photoresist layer 106 before the mask fa G4 is applied) Then, the exposure & θ is applied to the (four)-layer photoresist layer (the pattern formed by the unpatterned first-resistance:: the spacing between the patterns of the ^ is the same. ', the size of the 3 case is, for example, after two adjacent' The eye is etched with reference to Tugangan, and the mG layer 1G6 is used as a mask, and Ο is removed. 4'. Accordingly, the method of patterning the photoresist layer 106 of the photoresist layer 106 is, for example, a dry photoresist method or a wet method. Next, in the conductor layer, 104, the material of the wall material layer π 例如 is, for example, a nitridation method such as chemical vapor deposition. In the embodiment, the size of the mask layer 104 is patterned. Wi is, for example, 90 rnn' and the pattern spacing between two adjacent patterned masks 35 is, for example, 90 nm. Next, referring to FIG. 1C, an anisotropic etching process is performed to remove a portion of the spacer material layer. 110, in order to pattern the mask layer, the sidewalls of the mask layer form a gap wall 11G'. At this time, the spacer wall 11G is provided. There is a gap 1〇8 between the two adjacent patterned mask layers 104'. In addition, due to the anisotropic etching process, the spacer material layer 11 in the vertical direction is also damaged. The spacers 11〇, the upper portion p thus has a rounding effect. Generally, the parameters such as the thickness and etching conditions of the previously deposited spacer material layer 110 can be controlled, and the process requires 200847231. 2005-0101 22657twf.doc/p The width W2 of the bottom of the spacer 110' is adjusted to control the width of the gap 108 to meet the requirements of the component design. In the above embodiment, the bottom of the spacer 110' The width W2 is, for example, 15 nm. Since the pattern spacing between two adjacent patterned mask layers 1 〇 4 is, for example, 90 nm, there is a spacer 110 between the two adjacent patterned mask layers 104 ′. The width of the gap 1 〇 8 is, for example, 6 〇 nm. Then, referring to Fig. 1C, a hard mask 幕 ο οf material layer 112 is formed on the conductor layer 102. The hard mask material layer 112 covers the patterned mask layer 1 〇4, and the spacer 110, and fill in the room 108. The material of the hard mask material layer 112 is, for example, borophosphon glass, and the forming method thereof is, for example, chemical vapor deposition. Next, referring to FIG. 1D, a part of the hard mask material layer 112 is removed to = gap A hard mask layer m is formed in 1〇8. The method of removing part of the hard mask material layer is, for example, (10) hiding, such as dry silk or wet silk carving. The value is h-shaped, and the hard mask (four) layer 112 is Removing the hard mask material layer 112 # The mask material layer m is, for example, removed until: the intrinsic image is seen, so the hard portion p is removed, so that the hard mask layer 112, the top of the ==_ is avoided. When engraving the process, ^ cable, to the implementation of a wealth, formed in the township of _ 1GY towel =. 11 200847231 2005-0101 22657twf.doc/p After removing the hard mask material (4) 112i completely exposing the internal crucible, the hard mask layer 112 has a size W3 of, for example, 6 〇 nm. Please take the meal photo 1E, pattern the mask layer 1〇4, remove the mask layer, for example, wet_method = mixed solution of nitric acid and hydrogen _ to make j == wall ·. The method of removing the spacers 110 is, for example, a removal, such as using heated phosphoric acid. After 4 z, the case Ο ,, the tea is shown in Figure 1F, with the conductor layer 1〇2 exposed by the hard mask, to form the guide as a mask, and the removal method is removed, for example, the exposed Wei metal is removed first. After the layered ship b = the exposed polysilicon layer 102a and then the chipped layer is removed, for example, after the dry and multi-conductor structure 114 is formed, the hard mask layer 112 is removed. Less than 2 - selective etching process - ^ W3 ^ 6 〇 It is worth noting that due to the gap layer 104, the size W1, and /, nine degrees is smaller than the patterned mask formed in the gap 1 〇 The size W3 of the 8th is also smaller than the hard mask layer 112 of Fig. 2, which means that the size W1 of the mask layer 1〇4 is 舜¥萁β.

The invention can be further advanced - =0 patterned into layers to reduce the size of the pattern on the layer to be etched; ^ used in the manufacture of the hard mask embodiment, the conductor layer can be said to be, for example, in other solid layers Crystal (4), dielectric layer, full, tffD' material wall is not in the above real == (two). That is to say, 'material layer and hard mask layer m', mask = 104, spacer 11 〇, for example, have different cost selectivity, then the upper 即可 method can be applied to define a material layer with a smaller size. . The detailed process is known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be described here. In summary, the present invention utilizes a patterned mask layer and spacers to form a hard mask layer in the gap, and by removing the patterned mask/gap, with a hard mask layer The cover (4) is used as a conductor structure. The size of the mask layer is smaller than the pattern size of the patterned photoresist layer. Therefore, the present invention can overcome the limitations of the current lithography process resolution and produce gates, wires, plugs or other conductors having a smaller size. structure. , 13 200847231 2005-0101 22657twf.doc/p In addition, the hard mask layer produced by the above method has a smaller taxi, and can define a smaller pattern size on any material layer to be engraved. Increase the accumulation of integrated circuits. • Another aspect] The present invention can control the width of the spacer wall such that the size of the hard mask layer of the gap mask is smaller than the size of the mask layer produced by the photo processing process. That is to say, in the premise of not changing the machine, this method can break through the limitation of the machine and the photoresist in the lithography process, and f) the pattern and structure with smaller size and better quality. Therefore, the present invention can achieve the effect of downsizing by simple means, thereby improving the components, the degree of assembly and the process n, which makes the process difficulty less, and can help to save manufacturing costs. </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; The scope of the invention is defined by the scope of the appended claims.
